I don't know about you guys, but I love the cute cloth diapers that are available for our children these days. When I started cloth diapering my first child it was still prefolds and those horrid plastic pants! Oh I hated those plastic pants! Now there are so many different designs of diapers and ways to diaper.
I recently received and reviewed a new diaper with my youngest. She's 2 months now and a better sleeper than any of her brothers and sisters were at this age! But as much as that is a blessing it's also a bit of a problem when you cloth diaper. She doesn't wake up much so she doesn't get changed much and leaks do happen. That is why I am so thankful for Binky D Diapers! These are wonderful. They have the absorbency of bamboo with the leak stopping power of the best cover all the while still being able to show their pretty colors!
Binky D Diapers was created by Ashley after she had started cloth diapering her 9 month old baby. She loved the new styles and designs. Her slogan has always been "Cool Cloth Diapers for the Modern Baby". Now she offers those wonderful "cool" popular prints for all to own!
The base price for one of her one size diapers(which is what I reviewed) is $28. She also offers up newborn diapers as well which are so adorable with their snap down navels. I loved newborn cloth diapers personally because of how cute they are. Technically you can use a one size on a newborn, but I prefer to use the newborn on the newborns and then switch to the one size diapers.
Why buy those pretty fitteds when you're just going to cover them up? Really the reason to wear cute fluff is to show it off after all!
Binky D Diapers are hybrid fitteds which allows you the wonderful absorbent ability of a fitted with the leakproof power of your PUL covers but without a cover! I have always had a love hate relationship with fitteds because of the leaking that they would do without a cover. Now I can have my wonderful fitteds at night without the extra heat of a cover on my babe.
If you cloth diaper you'll understand why this is excellent! Also with this diaper you have a double snap in soaker. The upper soaker is a snake style. All are bamboo and cotton fleece topped. The snake style is where it is twice as long as the diaper so you fold it under to double the absorbency. Then you have the under soaker which is a singled soaker. Both are bamboo with the upper soaker having cotton fleece on the top and bottom while the other only has the fleece on the top. The cover portion of the diaper is simply an inner of cotton velour with a hidden layer of poly fleece plus the adorable outer.
I have to admit I've been checking out their facebook page regularly to see when they are stocking. Unfortunately, I missed their last one. Now I have to wait to see what great new colors and diapers they are going to be making! They sell their diapers on a hyena cart page which allows everyone access to buy them. Sad for us, they don't make and sell a bulk amount of them. I'd love to add a few more to my collection of diapers! Oh and don't forget to follow them on twitter to see what they have to say and when they will be releasing new diapers!
Oh and they also have a wonderful line of Nigh D Night diapers which are specially formulated for night time wear for you little squish. During the day I'm not a fan of bulk and tend to change our diapers regularly to keep our bum dry, but like I said night time is a bit different around here. With previous babies I've used fitteds and colors as well as covers and prefolds. I love the absorbency of the fitted without having to cover the cuteness with a cover!
Also looking on their hyena cart page I've noticed reinforced undies which would be fabulous for potty training! I'm almost done potty training my last "older" girl and this little still has a year at least before she's ready to toilet train so I'm going to have to keep these in mind for later use!
Make sure to pop over and give them a like on facebook, follow on twitter, and favorite on hyena cart. I know you'll have a love of these diapers just as we do!

Charlie's Soap Laundry Detergent and Stain Remover Review
Charlie's Soap started out in 1976 as a family owned and operated company who let word of mouth bring them their customers. Today, they are still doing the same thing. Plus of course creating and bringing us their wonderful green ecofriendly products!
I recently was given the opportunity to review th
eir liquid laundry detergent and stain remover(prewash spray). I must state that I was a bit hesitant at first due to the fact that I don't use liquid detergent. I have found it just doesn't work as well with our well water. Low and behold this stuff is excellent! It got everything as clean or even CLEANER than the powder I had been using and didn't seem to bother any of my children or myself who have sensitive skin.
Doesn't Buzz look super clean and happy?! Well let me tell you before he got washed with the prespray and liquid laundry detergent he definitely was not so clean or happy. One of my two younger children(who has a love of markers) decided to color ALL over him with a red marker. And by all over I do mean all over. I should have taken a picture but didn't unfortunately. He had a red face and red clothes. It was like a red paint bomb had exploded on him. I sprayed him down with the stain remover and put him in the wash. Tada! He came out all nice and squeaky clean. My son was ecstatic to have a clean buzz back.
I highly recommend you try out Charlie's Soap for your laundry needs. But don't stop there! They also have household cleaning products, for kitchen and bath as well as outdoor and indoor cleaners. I have heard people say that they use the laundry detergent mixed with water to clean their cars and lots of other things as well!
You can find Charlie's Soap on:
facebook
twitter
their website
you can also find phone and email contacts on their website.
I must now say that because I loved their liquid laundry detergent I had to try out their powder detergent as well. Like I said powder always seems to work better with our hard well water(they also make a booster to help out with that problem if you need it) so I wanted to give it a try! I ordered some and had a go of it. I am in love. I may just have to switch totally over from our old laundry detergent!
Did you know Charlie's is safe to use on cloth diapers? Yes you heard me right a detergent that you can not only use on your clothes but also on babies diapers too! I love that! No more having three or four different laundry detergents sitting around, now just have one that you can use on everything! Use it for your delicates, your jeans, your sheets, and even babies dipes!
Want to try some of your own to see what you think? Check out my GIVEAWAY to win a bottle of the liquid laundry and the prewash spray. Make sure to check out the rest of my Holiday Gift Guide Giveaways as well!

Mudshrimps Cloth Diaper Review
Recently we got to try out a cloth diaper cover or pocket diaper from Mudshrimps. We used ours as a cover, but you can also use it as a pocket diaper. I like using them as covers more because you can just change out the prefold or liner and not have to do as much laundry unless they soil the cover as well.
Mudshrimps diapers are made by a work at home mom who started in 2010. These diapers have a great quality and craftsmanship. We had no issues with leaks. Fit was great. I love that they have rise snaps so that you can use them with multiple size children. Right now we only have the two in diapers(both 2 year olds) but this would easily fit a larger child or a smaller child. I would say probably from around 10 pounds up to 35 pounds.
Zyera loves this cover. If I let her pick this is the one she always chooses. She gets upset if its already dirty and she can't wear it again. I'd say these are definite kid pleasers!

MommySoup Cloth Diaper Review
When I was approached by a fan on facebook about reviewing one of her cloth diapers, I was ecstatic! I mean who doesn't like a free cloth diaper! And then it arrived. Oh my can we say cute! I had asked for a gender neutral print because almost all of the ones we have are girly. This diaper uses snaps(which I prefer to aplix) and is a pocket. Now, I do love my fitteds for Fionna, but Zyera does great with pockets so this one went to her. Along with the pocket diaper came two inserts. One large and one small. Here is how I used it. For daytime use I would stuff the pocket with the large insert. For night time use I would stuff with the large and then place the small on top of the cover so it was next to baby. At night time I also added a fleece cover as it is not waterproof. During the day I forgot the fleece and she did wet through, but not soaked so it wasn't a problem.
You can check out MommySoup for yourself on facebook and Etsy
We love this diaper! The fit is great and she can wear it for a while with the rise snaps. I love that it is not super bulky when you put both inserts in it. That is one thing I try to avoid because it can't be comfortable to have a huge bulk on your bottom!

Brown Cow Cotton Diaper Review
I recently got the chance to review a diaper from Brown Cow Cotton Diapers. Make sure to also check out her awesome website! Oh and to get a headstart on the giveaway they're sponsoring(yeap you heard right) go and like their facebook! Places like this make me want to splurge and buy more than I should. Sigh, cloth diapering can become addictive. But as you can see from the pictures it's so cute!!
So don't those pictures just make you want to find a little bum to cloth diaper and go on a buying spree!!?? I'm restraining myself. . . . for now. Must be good must be good.
Now onto talking about this super nice diaper. As you can see the cover has a snap down rise so it can be used for bitty babies and larger babies. With my girls I use the second(or middle) set of rise snaps as they are only around 20 lbs each still. When you have a real bitty you'd use the bottom set and as they grow bigger go up higher on the rise snaps. You also have adjustments on the waistband so that you can make it smaller. This is called a one size cover and can fit I believe from 10-40 pounds. Think of all the money you're saving with reusing this! Ok ok, you have to resist the urge to buy a bunch of diapers to save money.
Now the trifold inside. You can use this as a diaper for an itty itty bitty with a pin. It then becomes the insert for a diaper when you use the cover. You can put two in for overnights as well or use a different soaker to help catch all the night time wets.
My daughter found this diaper when I opened it and declared "MINE". Yeap Fionna knows quality when she sees it. She wanted to wear it immediately(I did wash it first though). We put it on and she strutted around. She must really have loved it because we had to change it about five minutes later from a stink. She has since worn it several times, but won't let Zyera wear it. These two are so funny. They pick out their own dipes and give to me to put on. Fionna will watch over Zyera and if Zyera tries to take this one Fionna snatches it saying "No, Mine" while pointing her finger at Zyera. Zyera likewise has one that is her favorite. She on the other hand does not talk much yet, so she snatches hers and screams at Fionna.
